Hey Guys,

I recently ran a few HDD diagnostic tools(acronis drive monitor + hdd tune) and got a few errors.
Also when i tried copying some files from the 2 HDD's mentioned below I got a Data error (cyclic redundancy check) and another one which I cannot remember.

Do you think my HDD are failing ? The 1.5 WD is < 1 yr and the 2 tb is < 1 month

Please advice.

Cheers,
Ashwin







 
IMO your segate 2tb hdd is OK, that current pending sector might decrease with time when you format your HDD. I too have 4 pending sector on my WD 500gb HDD and now it is 0 :).
And about your WD 1.5TB, i think it may be failing. The reallocated sector count is 1 , it means the hdd have encountered 1 bad sector and remapped it.

Correct me if i am wrong:)
